Hasbro is collaborating with it's great industry foe, Mattel. We had Transformers on Uno games and now we have them adorning Hotwheels products. As mentioned before, the assumption was that the Hotwheels products would not in any way be the characters but simply licensed art pasted on. And that's exactly what we are seeing with these new Skate toys. They come with a skateboard that has some Transformers art along with thematic shoes for your fingers.
While Legacy voyager Origin Wheeljack (Cybertronian Wheeljack) is street dated for March 31, one store put him up early. And the fan who got him, Chicagolander, has taken images so that we can see him at every angle. And some angles sure are better than others. There is a really nice shot, though, of Bunblebee inside him, recreating the scene from the very first episode. We see what needs to be done for Bee to fit and how spacious the alt mode is.
Hasbro and one of the main designers, Mark Maher, has posted new photos of the Star Raiders which were officially revealed yesterday. While we see nice shots of the group is does give us a better look at the final deco for Lockdown, which has extra deco on the hood including green stripes and individually painted spikes. Ferak is said to also have extra deco not seen in the initial stock images which we can see in these photos.
Mark posted his own photos on Instagram which show how you can give Lockdown longer legs, making him look more like his lanky self. As an extra bonus, those leg extensions seem to be a preview of Road Pig, the 4th deluxe in this line, and those are his arms. Which means that he is the Crashbar mold and the final piece to completing Junkasaurus.
Hi Transformers fans! We just wanted to give you a little heads up. The Omega Prime Haslab just has 10 hours left for orders. It is fully backed, with all tiers unlocked and currently has almost 22,500 backers.
Let us know if the combo seen below interests you. As a crossover with the Target brand, Hasbro is releasing a set that consists of the cab from Legacy G2 Optimus Prime, the trailer from Earthrise Prime and the Siege Ravage cassette. The cassette is redeco’d into Bullseye, Target’s dog mascot while Optimus is made to look like a Target truck. There are minimal accessories, like the matrix.
This should be up tomorrow for preorders and be at the $59.99 price point, as we had previously reported.
The images are from a Target page that can no longer be accessed. This will be, obviously, a Target exclusive.
We know the Transformers fandom has been hankering for something new to order and this article is to let you know that new preorders are upon us. This Thursday, Hasbro will reveal the Transformers Star Raiders figures (remember, these have yet to be revealed officially) and the preorders will go live.
We have the web pages for those preorders below so that you can be ready.
Remember, some Walmart exclusive never made it to store shelves and remained online only, like Galaxy Shuttle and TLK Hot Rod.
We know we are getting a dying (or dead or battle damaged, however you prefer calling it) Brawn and Ratchet 2 pack and it will be exclusive to Target, just like the previous one was. And now we may have our first look at the Ratchet figure, which comes to us from a facebook post. It is basically a redeco of the Ironhide we got like this but with a new head for Ratchet. Below is the image along with the product number for those interested.
TRA BB GEN SS 2 PACK VOY 86 RATCHET, & DLX 86 BRAWN (battle damaged)
Product Number: F9878
The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back to roast the news of the day. Host and roast-master ScottyP is joined by Mr. Starscream, Aarnhide19, Kuhlio and Megatronus as we light up the latest leaks, retailer-exclusives, and masterpiece combiners.
Episode #345 “The Roast” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
We kick things off with a quick look at upcoming Amazon and Walmart retailer exclusives, which are a decidedly mixed bag with a few bugs.
We cover a few more upcoming Legacy United and Studio Series releases, including Cybertron Starscream, and 86 Blaster. Opaque Eject compels some to sing the virtue of miniature Transformers. Minicons, you say? No, never heard of them.
The Missing Link has been found, and it is gloriously roast-proof. The only question is: will this be a one-off?
Do we enjoy the MPG trainbots? Yes we do. Are they excellent robots that turn into trains? Yes they are. Is making them combine into a super robot a good idea? Yes it is. Is MPG Raiden good? The only response to that question - it's time for The Roast to begin.
40 for 40 is back: the year is 2002. Each member of the Twincast explains their favorite Transformers toy from this auspicious year for the brand.
We wrap up the episode as we always do, with a round of bragging rights.
